Dekker presents his third long player with 'Future Ghosts': his most complex album to date with ten tracks full of love and loss. 'Future Ghosts' is perhaps a bit more melancholic than its predecessors, but the songs come across as confident and with a sense of hope and curiosity that keeps both the artist and the listener on the edge of their seats.
Dekker on " Future Ghosts":
"After finishing 'I Won't Be Your Foe' in 2021, I knew I had achieved something special In a difficult phase, trying to use my songs to create an image of how I wanted to be and how things should feel. For the new album 'Future Ghosts' it was now time to write songs that reflect. how I'm really feeling and what's going on with me.
As the focus on Covid began to fade, it was replaced by various health scares and dire diagnoses in my extended family. As an artist, things were going well , streaming numbers and ticket sales were steadily increasing, but I was struggling a little more privately than usual. This imbalance brought fears about health and a premonition of mortality. I started writing this album when my daughter asked me, "What happens to us when we die?" I told her that I didn't know for sure and that we should look for an answer together. At that moment we wrote the title song of the album 'Future Ghosts' together.
Somehow I knew that I had just set the tone for the album: thoughtful, melancholic, not overly indulgent and with one A little more lively feeling than my previous work.
I continued writing and recording the first demos, which led to the first session with my partner Stefan Wittich (drummer and co-producer) in his Berlin studio in spring 2022 . When we recorded the drums we only used four microphones. It was exciting to limit ourselves in this way and experiment with sounds. While I tried out different guitars and recording techniques, Stefan edited the drum tracks and added various percussive elements to them. I am an impatient writer. I don't like to dwell on details and don't like waiting during the creative process. However, there were long periods of several months between many of the steps on this album - for very human reasons. I now see that this time was good for the album and helped it feel as alive as I had hoped. These songs are about pain, loss and disorientation, but that is not the intended message or mood. The album is about life and its many mysteries. It's about getting through difficult times and learning that you can overcome them. In these songs you also find something like faith and a kind of love that makes you do strange things. Zach Hanson (Bon Iver, The Staves, Whitney) put the finishing touches on the record by mixing and mastering it in his wonderful way."
